‘I’M BLESSED’: AN INTERVIEW WITH DARIUS GRAY Darius Aidan Gray joined the LDS church in 1964, at a time when black members were not allowed to hold the priesthood and could not enjoy temple blessings. But a remarkable answer to prayer, “This is the restored gospel and you are to join,” led him to put aside his strong aversion to the then- current policies and trust in God’s goodness. The answer he received was so powerful that it has provided the grounding for his testimony ever since. And it had to be powerful to sustain him through the many challenges he has been called to go through in a life of service that has allowed him to advocate firsthand with prophets and apostles on issues affecting black Saints. Please join us for a wide-ranging interview with this remarkable Latter-day Saint, who, though not naturally blessed with patience with trials of body or promises delayed, still affirms that his life is “blessed,” that “God is in charge.”
